Подробнее +This paper, Freedom Forum, is based on the pillars of protection of human rights, media freedom, right to information and democracy. Freedom Forum has a strong belief that democracy can flourish only when there is people's participation in every decision making process on the one hand and on the other the leadership of public agency should be transparent and accountable to the people. It holds that if people do not have the right to know and are not empowered to question their government for accountability, democracy will not have real meaning in the true sense. Freedom Forum has the firm conviction that democracy cannot thrive and serve citizen's interests unless people's right to freedom of expression and of press is guaranteed. In addition, it posits that one of the major themes and working areas of Freedom Forum is protection and promotion of human rights. Freedom Forum believes that guarantee of fundamental rights will lead to the flourishing of democracy and improving the livelihoods of people. Nepal is currently passing through a serious transitional period with sharp violation of people's basic human rights from different sections of society.
